Vikings Tight End Future in Question | Minnesota Vikings News

The Vikings’ tight end future hangs in the balance as T.J. Hockenson’s contract expires after 2026, forcing a tough decision: re-sign the aging Pro Bowler or draft a young stud in 2027. With veteran Josh Oliver locked in through 2028 and young talents like Gavin Bartholomew and Ben Yurosek still unproven, the team’s fate hinges on Hockenson’s bounce-back and how they plan to replace him. Early draft projections point to big names like Jamari Johnson and TreyDez Green—both over 6-foot-5—with Johnson already being mocked to Minnesota in Round 1. The 2027 draft could be pivotal for the Vikings’ offense, depending on what happens this season.
